THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA Soundtrack (2-LP) 1st 1987 US Pressing w/ Booklet VG+
"THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA" Soundtrack 2-LP Polydor 831 273-1 Y-2 First 1987 US pressing
Andrew Lloyd Webber's iconic opera performed by the original London cast, featuring Michael Crawford, Sarah Brightman and Steve Barton.
Wonderful sounding wax is VG+. Both LPs show super high gloss and play smoothly with no skips nor drop offs; modest surface noise ("crackle") audible during quiet passages. A few very light scratches visible under bright light have little or no impact on sound quality. LP labels are clean and bright, look like new.
Gatefold jacket is VG+; colorful, clear and bright front, back and inside, with modest ring / rub wear. Solid seams and spine. No splits. Spine print clearly legible.
Includes original 24-page, 11"x11" booklet (with photos, lyrics and credits) in near mint condition ... and original custom inner sleeves featuring large, beautiful color photos in excellent condition (w/ minor inner sleeve seam splits).

Profile & Policies:
I have been a record collector for more than 55 years now, with thousands of LPs and 45s in my collection. Now retired, I am looking to downsize my footprint and so am selling some of my collection, the proceeds going to the purchase a few special releases going forward.
I carefully grade records using Goldmine Magazine Record Collector guidelines. To ensure accurate wax grade citings, I choose my grades based on my listen of the very LP listed, not solely a visual exam.
All records are cleaned with my Spin-Clean Record Washer System. Records are securely packaged in professional cardboard record mailers, with the wax positioned outside the jacket to avoid seam split in transit. The wax + jacket combo is sealed in a plastic sheet to avoid water damage in transit. Mailing is via USPS Media Mail.
International customers are welcome providing they abide by eBay Global Shipping Program guidelines.
